I've recently discovered a passion for soaring and I found this project whilst browsing soaring websites.
Steve Fossett's gliding altitude record was set as part of this project's first phase. Phase two is set to take a specially built glider to 90,000 feet using South American mountain waves and the polar vortex:

The phase two glider takes a somewhat familiar appearance!
